Lord Leverhulme on Canvas
An exciting project involving 250 young people across the North West has been organised in partnership with The Port Sunlight Museum. To celebrate the founder of the Youth Federation, Lord Leverhulme, the young people will be producing a ceramic tile and canvas quote from Lord Leverhulme himself. At a big celebration and unveiling at the Lady Lever Art Gallery in July, the young people, their parents/carers and charity staff will see the hard work the young people have put in to the project.
